Companies should support bike plan

The city's bike plan could be done, in very large amounts, in a short period by soliciting/offering bike stations to big business.

They already pay for advertising signs in taxis /buses/trains and elsewhere that few people read, so how about participating by paying for a bike-equipped station and its maintenance. Cheap, so maybe two to three stations.
They could put a small “donated by” sign on the station/bike and maybe some would want/offer a space in front/near their business.
All of these businesses have maintenance crews who, easily, could keep the stations, bikes, even lane markers in presentable condition. Offer the crews a free roundtrip bike ride home!
Win-win, no?
